A week ago I announced that I was going to do Camp Nano by editing my MS Stop The Raven and today kicked off with an interesting start. While I did manage to work on a writing project it wasn't Stop The Raven. I spent the day between editing my short story Eldrich's Forgotten for … Continue reading First Day of Camp Nano

Writing Everyday Vs. Not
I've been on both sides of the spectrum. When I was posting on Wattpad I wrote thousands of words and popped out multiple chapters every day.

Growing Some Skin
No matter what field your in. What your hobbies include. At some point you are going to have to let someone else look at your work. Even if it's that quilted blanket that you've been working on for months and your great aunt wants to inspect your stitching.
